P.O.R.N. Diets

I am coining this term as I feel some of the diets out there are so radical they need to be discussed in one place.

We here from our favorite celebrities daily and some of us live for this. We follow them on Twitter, talk about them on Bebo and MySpace or e mail each other about them especially when a new diet is talked about.

There have been some over the top radical diets in the past like the 'Air diet', not a very popular one for obvious reasons unlike the 'Chocolate' diet. Then there is the more main stream 'Atkins' diet or 'The Dash Diet' or even 'The South Beach Diet'. All have there plus and minus points and their advocates and nay sayers as well.

The trick when it comes to diets if there is a trick in selecting one would be to thoroughly research the topic. The mere fact that there literally are thousands of diets commercially available shown on television, billboards or even your local Chemist shop.

Here will be many, many articles pertaining to the topic of P.O.R.N. Diets circulating our media and your opinion on them is most welcome. Maybe you have been on one and would like to praise it or maybe warn others away from it. Whatever you may like to share, diet related, please do.

Nutritional Diet and Weight Loss

By Larry Wise

A nutritional diet is a crucial part or having any healthy lifestyle and not having a nutritional diet will leave yourself open to a number of medical complications. For a start, to maintain a healthy lifestyle on a more permanent basis, you should simply make some changes to the way you eat and exercise. Fad diets and actress up some pills are not a good idea and achieve little to nothing in the long term.

Contrary to popular belief, starving yourself or steeping meals is not going to make you lose weight. It is also going to be unhealthy in the longer term and you will find it easier to put on weight again afterwards. This slows down your metabolism and is actually counterproductive. You want to be speeding up your metabolism by having proper meals several times a day.

The three types of nutrients that the body needs of fats, proteins and carbohydrates and each of these is equally important. Whether challenge lies, is in finding the right types of products which have the right kinds of these sources. Any balanced meal should contain a certain quantity of each of these but fats, for example, like everything else need to be good fats.

A good way to get started is to write up a shopping list every time you go shopping. To help avoid the temptation of buying junk food and snacks that you don't need. Make sure you take care to choose plenty of fresh produce and try to avoid processed foods and snacks. Things like chocolate bars should be a rarity and avoid buying multi packs of such products.

Another effective way of maintaining a nutritional diet is but planning your meals and preparing before you read them, preferably the day before. This will help to ensure that you have a more rigidly planned diet and you'll find it easier to stick to. Consistency is also an important factor and you do need to be committed to keeping it up.
